2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumHad a close friend on Facebook say how tired she was
About "Bernirbots" whining that "it's not fair" (not in response to a post of mine- I think more in general)
I bit my tongue and didn't respond (personal stuff going on with her and it didn't feel like the time to hash this out) but I'm gonna rant a little here:
You're gonna keep hearing that. The system's not fair is pretty much the point for me and I believe a lot of Bernie supporters- and I for one won't quit saying it once the primaries are over. And it may seem naive or childish to some, but I'm not ashamed to say that fact bothers me and we need to do better.

(23,720 posts)Why the opposition expects his supporters to keep their mouths shut and not point out examples of the rigging is something I wonder about often.

(39,451 posts)you want to debate trade, healthcare, foreign policy. The answer to everything is "She's winning" "I'm with her". Even Boxer pulled that crap last nite in Nevada.
I'm tired of the "Hillbots" holier than thou attitude about how nice their supporters are and how complete a-holes Bernie supporters are. Last nite a Hillary supporter yelled in the face of a young woman & called her a "fucking bitch". That is one example of many times we have been bullied by her sweet supporters.
But if that was a Bernie supporter- oh my - there'd be 100 posts about it on the greatest page.
